Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas

No nation, no society, and no international order can call itself just and humane if it measures its success solely by power or prosperity while neglecting those who live at the margins. Indeed, Christ’s love for the least and the forgotten compels us to reject every form of selfishness that leaves the poor and the vulnerable invisible.

Humility of Heart: Jesus, meek and humble of heart,
make my heart like unto Yours.
Free me from pride and self-importance.
Teach me to serve without seeking recognition.
Let humility open me to Your will
and to the needs of others.
Amen. dlvr.it/TRRVxq

It is disheartening to see today that the strength of international law and humanitarian law no longer seems binding, replaced by the presumed right to overpower others. This is unworthy and shameful for humanity and for the leaders of nations.

This painting of St Columban was presented to Bishop John La Sam, the new bishop of Myitkyina, as a gift from the Rebirth Rehab Center. St Columban is the patron of the Diocese. It was painted by one of our volunteers. We ask St Columban to intercede for peace in Myanmar.

Thanks to donors to our work at the Rebirth Rehabilitation Center in Myitkyina, Kachinland, Myanmar. Despite all the difficulties we were able to send 3 people to Yangon for training to be chefs.

It was wonderful to be able to attend the Mass of inauguration of Pope Leo. I was especially moved when he prayed for Myanmar.

Before he was Pope Leo XIV, Robert Prevost had heard about 16-year-old Donal Walsh who was dying of cancer in the west of Ireland. He was so impressed by Donal's deep that he wrote him a letter offering to make him an honorary Augustinian. And two days before he died, Donal was sworn in.
This is the story of a teenager whose courage and conviction inspired Ireland, and also a future Pope.

A gesture of love for someone who cannot reciprocate: this is to imitate God’s selfless style.

Today at the Rebirth Rehab Center in Myitkyina, Myanmar we finished a 3 month program. We had 35 clients including 6 women, 15 aftercare and 32 volunteers who are also recovering addicts. A daily reprieve from addiction is possible even in the most difficult circumstances.

Some people cannot overcome the embarrassment of going to confession. Feeling ashamed means you are not happy about what you have done. This is a good sign, but never allow shame to imprison you, because God is not ashamed of you. He always loves you. #Lent
